It’s finally here! Newly published by Ten Speed Press is The Tablehopper’s Guide to Dining and Drinking in San Francisco: Find the Right Spot for Every Occasion.

Here’s what Bruce Cole, editor and publisher of Edible San Francisco has to say: “Redefining what a city guide should be…Marcia Gagliardi’s first book has to be the hippest, on-the-money, and smartest guide to eating out in San Francisco ever published.” I know, meow.

You ready to buy? So smart, you. Of course I’d love for you to support your local bookseller. tablehopper has a special relationship with Green Apple Books, and you can always go through IndieBound and buy from an independently owned business near you.

When it’s time to take your parents out to dinner or your girlfriend on a sexy date, or when you’re looking for a hot venue for a birthday blowout or brunch with friends, who do you turn to for a spot-on recommendation? Why, the tablehopper, of course! Marcia Gagliardi (yes, moi) is San Francisco’s cuisine concierge, providing restaurant recommendations and helping thousands of diners find the right place for the right occasion.

With her unique blend of enthusiasm, insider knowledge, and sass, Marcia bases her recommendations on the reason you’re going out, who you’re dining with, and how much money you have to burn.
